@arstechnica What do people expect from Faux News anyway? Actual news? 😂
Maxilo Overit"Fox said it is aware of only one previous example of a license renewal being given permit-but-disclose treatment. That was in June 2007, when the FCC used permit-but-disclose procedures for the license renewals of Fox stations in New Jersey and New York, WWOR and WNYW. The FCC eventually closed the matter after over a decade of filings, allowing the stations to keep their licenses in 2018."
So Fox dragged it out until they had their work-product in the White House and the FCC who promptly "closed the matter."
This is a good argument for denying the license today.
LindaMarie@arstechnica Are the TV’s still tuned to Fox on military bases? Is Dejoy still running the Post Office? C’mon! Chop chop! Let’s save democracy!
YurkshireLad@arstechnica this will fire up republicans and their supporters, as it’s clearly more proof that they are being unfairly targeted and silenced.
SuperStormDroid@arstechnica the sooner Fox News is off the air, the sooner we can prevent our nation from stagnating.
Smitty@arstechnica they cannot continue the lies we saw last night.

@arstechnica tell ‘em for me- #foxnews is full of lying and dangerous disinformation!
Harry Callahan@arstechnica Where do I sign?
Chancerubbage@arstechnica I am uncertain, but I almost recall some precedent about some FCC restriction not having any teeth because it was not broadcast, but cable only.
I could easily see Fox giving up over the air broadcast as a sacrifice.
Dan@arstechnica Do people seriously not understand the difference?
Fox Broadcasting, like the one that brings you The Simpsons, Malcom in the Middle and other such shows, while sharing a parent company with Fox News, is a totally separate division.
Affiliate networks like the one mentioned, are affiliates of Broadcasting, not News.
